 1a Questão
In order to be able to make inferences and draw conclusions, the reader is supposed to use the following resources, EXCEPT:
Non-linguistic context (non-verbal information): information presented on maps, tables, pictures, drawings
Knowledge on textual organization: clues and information from the title, subtitles, thesis statements, etc.
 Linguistic context: clues which determine if the word is a noun, a verb, an adjective, etc.
Semantic context: the meaning of the text as a whole, i.e., to guess the meaning of the words and ideas based on the
context, taking into consideration the words, phrases and sentences which precede and proceed them, and which contribute
to the construction of the text as a whole.
 Background or previous knowledge: When you use this strategy, you are able to create hypotheses about the themes you are
going to read about in the texts. Afterwards, when you read the texts, you can agree or modify your first impressions about
them.
 
 
Explicação:
Background or previous knowledge: knowledge the reader already has about the subject of the text.
 
 
 
 2a Questão
Leia com atenção a situação abaixo e relacione-a com a técnica de leitura a qual se assemelha, assinalando a respectiva opção: When
you look for a number in a telephone directory, you do not read all the text. Instead, you prefer to hurry over the text until you find
the information you want. When doing so, which reading subskill are you applying?
extensive reading
 skimming
reading for gist
 scanning
intensive reading
 
 
Explicação:
Scanning helps the reader obtain information from the text without need reading all text.
It is a quick preview of the text, you just read the information contained in that space. You
do the scanning moving your eyes from up to down and vice-verse, looking for the main
words, or specific phrases or key words, etc. When you are doing the scanning pay
attention to the punctuations of the author, such us, marks with numbers, letters, asterisk,
etc. Look for underlined word, words in bold, in italic, different sizes of letters or words.
This process is useful, like already said, for whom wants to find specific information, such
as, a name, a date of birth, a phone number in a list, a word in a dictionary and so on.

World Religions
 From the earliest known the evidence of human religion by Homo sapiens neanderthalensis around 100,000 years ago to the present
day, religion continues to be a very influential aspect of human lives. Today, there are numerous challenges and problems faced by
humans from every possible background, location and social class. Every day people must face issues of health, safety and mortality.

not understand through the context the known physical world. Although there are countless religions, each different from the other,
they all serve the same purpose. Each answers questions which all humans seem to be programmed to ask: Why are we here?
 Everyday challenges and problems faced by humans.

 4a Questão
Leia o texto abaixo e assinale a alternativa que explica por que "The legacy of environmental catastrophes
is, instead, a hybrid of amnesia and habituation":
HOW QUICKLY WE FORGET
 OUR ADDICTION TO CHEAP ENERGY HAS A WAY OF CLOUDING MEMORIES OF EVEN THE MOST
VIVID DISASTERS
By Sharon Begley | NEWSWEEK Published May 7, 2010
The legacy of environmental catastrophes is, instead, a hybrid of amnesia and habituation. That is, the
public forgets more quickly now than in the past, and understands that no source of energy is risk-free.
Coal kills miners, including the 25 in West Virginia last month. Natural-gas pipelines sometimes explode
and occasionally kill, as in a 2000 accident that left 12 people dead in New Mexico. Nuclear reactors,
despite industry assurances, will never be risk-free; no technology is. The "risks" of renewable such as
wind and solar are higher energy prices, which too many people are less acceptable than the
environmental and human costs of fossil fuel. "There has been a generational change in risk tolerance,"
says engineering professor Henry Petroski of Duke University, author of the 2010 book The Essential
Engineer. "The public has become more familiar with the concept of risk, and the fact that it is ubiquitous.
The bumper sticker S--T HAPPENS used to be a fringe phenomenon, but now it's mainstream: people
have become resigned to risk."
People are very concerned about the risks of energy production.
These diseases are caused by long hours of work in natural-gas pipelines.
 Our addiction to cheap energy made us too tolerant to the risks of energy production.
Governments and society are planning new ways of obtaining cheap energy.
These diseases are caused by long hours of work in coal mines.
 
 
Explicação:
That is, the public forgets more quickly now than in the past, and understands that no source of energy is risk-free.

necessary in the text.
 They help students make sense of what they have just read and emphasize the need of going from reading a text to using
what has been learnt from the text.
They improve students¿ abilities to understand oral speech, as they are based on listening activities which precede the
reading activity.
They are generally useless in helping students understand the text they will be reading next, as they are not responsible for
the activation of any prior knowledge.
 
 
Explicação:
The post-reading is a level in which the main focus is based on the relationship of the student´s world with the author´s ideas.

when you read the texts, you can agree or modify your first impressions about them. When you use this strategy, you are mentally
preparing yourself for the reading. Try to understand the title of the text, if there is a one, or search for any other visual clues
because they generally function as a summary of the text.
